Stop watering how many days before harvest?

It takes longer to dry herb the closer you water to harvest, so should I stop watering 3 days before or longer?

I see your theory.....but drying a plant right out prior to harvest can create real trimming pains. I think I have done 2 days, but it also depends on how fast your plants suck up the water from the soil. Mine still had enough moisture to keep the leaves perky, but the pots were lite.

I don't know if that helps or not.

I grow hydroponic .now so water till the chop, I've noticed no.real difference in drying time to any other methods I've tried such as this one

ok cool reps and devil ur rite about that and i would probably lose some thc

You want to harvest at roughly the same time you would water. Water, fertilize, water, fertilize, water, harvest, with equal time in between.

good rule mothers

so, if i were to do my final watering tonight, I could cut tomorrow night then? Provided Ive done my flushing good up to this point? and cut down in the dark right before lights on? its what I usually do, but is there a large difference to chopping when the lights are on? I know what jorge cervantes has to say about it, just want other feedback. mayb e Ill start a thread.
